Almost the whole of this attractive walk is on the well-waymarked Centenary Way and Wolds Way. Much of it is below the gentle northern slopes of the wolds, not far from the coast, and the many superb views include - near the end - Flamborough Head. The scenic delight is probably the delightful ramble through the wooded and steep-sided Stocking Dale below Folkton Wold.
